Being an exclusive girl mom the last four years has left me seeing all things pink and glittery. When I found out we were having a boy, I was so excited for him, but completely clueless on boy things. Maybe that was the reason it took me until the week he was due to finish his nursery. I found this herringbone wallpaper and loved the color. It’s neutral, but offers lots of texture. Everything came together after I found this wallpaper. I knew I wanted a metal crib this time around. My girls have a white, wood crib they have chewed on, leaving teeth marks all over the top.…

Boy Nursery Mood Board
We are only 6 weeks (or less) out from meeting this baby, and I finally have a plan for the nursery. Better late than never right? Sources are listed at the bottom of the post. I still am debating paint color! To go neutral or a pop of color? The room is actually already blue, but naturally it’s not the right shade so I really want to paint it. I’m deciding between Sherwin Williams Amazing Gray – shocker it’s all over our house. It’s a great neutral. Or Sherwin Williams Mediterranean. I decided to go with a daybed this time around instead of a rocking chair or glider because I…

Kitchen Tour Updated
In the beginning of my blogging journey, I wrote a post about our kitchen. Since that time, a few updates have happened in the space. The original kitchen post. That post has more construction pictures and our original fixtures. The updates aren’t anything crazy, I updated the pendants ( farmhouse basket shade DIY tutorial) and we have switched the barstools twice. Ironically these small-ish changes have made a huge difference. Our original upholstered barstools were sure to be destroyed by my kids. I mistakenly thought upholstered barstools could survive children. Wrong. Before total destruction, we decided to move them to the lake house mainly because they had backs. Our barstools…

Fall Home Tour
Welcome to my fall home tour! Fall is by far my favorite season. I love the trend in recent years of using different colors in fall decor than just the traditional organge, red, and yellow. I have been absolutely loving contrasting cooler tones; blue, purple, and teal are my go to right now. Our porch is the tone setter for the house. I am trying to keep all our holiday decor within limits this year since I’m preggos and tired. Easy to put out and easy to pack away. I usually like making garlands and adding lots of natural elements. I always kill mums, and fast. This year, I decided…

Fall Console Table
The fall is starting to creep in, here in Georgia. Don’t get me wrong, the cool mornings melt way to blistering hot afternoons, but, it’s that morning preview that justifies dusting off pumpkins and cardigans.

Office Organiztion Challenge
At any given moment our home office may look like a mail truck crashed and exploded all its contents into it. So. Much. Mail. We moved out of our last office at the end of a lease with plans to begin building a new one right away. Unfortunately, all sorts of wrenches kept popping up. Here we still sit, office-less. This post is sponsored by Christmas Tree Shops And That. Post may contain affiliate links. If you’ve been following my stories, we are in the process of fixing this, but, in the meantime, work still has to happen. I set up a temporary at-home office, quickly and without much…

Playroom Update: Herringbone Planks & Faux Brick Wall
Wallpaper has become my favorite way to update a space. I used these wood wallpaper planks for a project in our dining room and was in love with how it turned out. You can see the dining room built in update here. Our playroom started very pink. You can see my first post on our playroom here. I wanted to update for the baby boy we’ll be welcoming in January. Less pink, more neutral was my goal. I decided to use the remaining material I had leftover to do a little accent area in our playroom. I got these PLAY letters from Hobby Lobby to finish it out. To start…

Bookshelf Styling Tips
At our old house we had two identical built ins to either side of our fireplace. They were the only display area in that house, so I had them all cutesy. I packed it all up to move it to our new house, but never loved the way it all worked within our new bookshelf built-ins. This post is sponsored by Christmas Tree Shops And That. Post may contain affiliate links. I decided to focus on this space because it’s a center point of our home. I was asked to participate in some shopping challenges where I’ll go into the Christmas Tree Shops And That store with four unique missions.…
